The Need by Helen Phillips

I have never stayed up all night reading a book, until this one. The building anxiety of this masterpiece of suspense—just, woah. Is this mother of two young children crazy? Is she suffering post-partum symptoms? Or, is there legit an intruder in her house, threatening the lives of her and her children, while her husband is away? This is a totally thrilling read and a commentary on the unrelenting anxiety that comes with motherhood. Read The Need now, thank me later.
